Mercator Globe with Classic Stand

Perfect for adding a bit of sophistication to a room, globes are literally the picture of worldliness. The antique appeal of the Mercator Globe with Classic Stand comes from the meticulously replicated 'gravure' printing technique, an intricate process championed by the cartographer Gerardus Mercator and known to result in the sharpest lines, words, and symbols. A truly beautiful example of an ever-intriguing object. Great in libraries and studies.
